And I can say with confidence that this recipe should be added to the list.

The aroma of vanilla and toasted nuts permeates the house and it smells like you have a batch of the best cookies baking.

I’m telling you, your roommate, hubby, or kiddos will be asking you what you’re making that smells so tantalizing. And you’ll be able to sit back and smile because you know it’s something that is as healthy for them as it is delicious.

If you’re trying to make a few healthy changes (and who isn’t this time of year?), this recipe will help with a resolution that’s probably on your list (at least it has been on everyone’s list who I’ve talked to in the past week or so): taming the sugar beast.

Munch on a handful of this along with your afternoon tea or while you’re watching a movie in the evening, and you might realize that a batch of chocolate chip cookies doesn’t sound so good. Ok, scratch that, chocolate chippers always sound good. But you might realize that you just don’t need them.

Paula, Sorry for the confusion! I listed the quantities for the flaked coconut and whole cashews in ounces and grams in the recipe above. For the flaked coconut it’s equal to about 5 1/2 cups, and for the whole cashews it’s a slightly scant 3 cups. I hope you enjoy the recipe if you give it a try!
